Question
Two answers required. Mainstream society upholds an “ideal” based on one of these two traits that suppresses the talent of people with the other, according to a 2012 book by Susan Cain. These two traits arise due to differences in arousal of the A·R·A·S pathway in a theory by Hans Eysenck, who grouped their axis with psychoticism and neuroticism. These two traits were coined to describe attentiveness to subjective needs in Carl (*) Jung’s Personality Types. The axis corresponding to these two opposite traits is the “E” in the OCEAN model. These two traits are the options for the first character of a Myers–Briggs indicator. For 10 points, name these two personality traits that lie on opposite ends of a spectrum describing how outgoing or sociable a person is. ■END■
